 Since ovens are large and resource-hungry they are usually only found in more feature-rich van builds or [[rv:class_c|RVs]], schoolies, some truck campers, etc. They are only rarely found in [[rv:cargo_van|cargo vans]] and [[rv:class_b|class B RVs]]. The common R/V cutout size for 3-burner ovens is 21" wide and 19" deep, so if you can fit that in your build you'll have plenty of options.  Most run on low-pressure propane.  Some options are here: https://pantherrvproducts.com/cooking/cooktop-oven-combos/ Since ovens are large and resource-hungry they are usually only found in more feature-rich van builds or [[rv:class_c|RVs]], schoolies, some truck campers, etc. They are only rarely found in [[rv:cargo_van|cargo vans]] and [[rv:class_b|class B RVs]].

-{{ :food:cooking:camp_chef_oven.jpg?direct&150|}}For those who do like having a real oven but need something smaller than the common RV size, the [[https://www.campchef.com/camp-cooking-systems-ovens/outdoor-ovens.html|Camp Chef camping ovens]] have some popularity due to their relatively compact size at only 12" deep and 2" wide (if you take the handles off). However because they are built to be lightweight and portable, they are extremely flimsy. They rattle and shake and buzz //endlessly//, no matter how smooth the road that you're driving on is. Long-term reliability is also questionable with the flimsiness of the construction, and they use a weird proprietary propane fitting that can be fiddly to adapt onto and sticks far off the back (making them need more depth than they should).+{{ :food:cooking:camp_chef_oven.jpg?direct&150|}}For those who do like having a real oven but need something smaller than the common RV size, the [[https://www.campchef.com/camp-cooking-systems-ovens/outdoor-ovens.html|Camp Chef camping ovens]] have some popularity due to their relatively compact size at only 12" deep and 20" wide (if you take the handles off).

 {{:food:cooking:402189_l.jpg?direct&200 |}}People who REALLY want an oven in a very small space have sometimes turned to boat ovens, which offer much better build quality in a very good form factor with a lot of features that do make them great for vans. But just like anything built for airplanes, anything built for boats carries a very high price tag. Ideally you'll look for a 2-burner version as they're generally shallower and the most compact, but [[https://www.westmarine.com/buy/force-10--two-burner-gourmet-galley-gimbaled-propane-ranges--P015_451_001_501?recordNum=7|don't say we didn't warn you about the prices]]. {{:food:cooking:402189_l.jpg?direct&200 |}}People who REALLY want an oven in a very small space have sometimes turned to boat ovens, which offer much better build quality in a very good form factor with a lot of features that do make them great for vans.
